Chapter 682 – The Mysterious Fourth Person
”I don’t remember, I lost my consciousness when that pillar of light descended, but ……” Cao Yuan paused and spoke with some uncertainty, “I felt as if something ran out of my body in that instant ……”
An Qingyu pondered seriously.
Using the Forbidden Ruins here would be locked and killed by that mysterious gaze, and if he wasn’t wrong, that pillar of crimson light should be the Divine Punishment used here to kill Forbidden Ruins possessors, and logically, after this pillar of light descended, Cao Yuan would inevitably be reduced to ashes.
But why did he not only survive, but even seriously injured and even killed a few oracle envoys?
What [Extremely Evil] level wanted criminal represents, An Qingyu knows very well, for Cao Yuan to become this level wanted criminal, it means that his existence has truly threatened this country ……
During the time he lost consciousness, what exactly happened?
”Jiang’er, retrieve the database within the [Pure Land] and see if there is any image data from Yahatahira City two years ago.” An Qingyu pondered for a moment and said to Jiang’er at the side.
”Good.”
Jiang’er nodded, and his figure merged into the electronic screen and began to access the database here.
”What about you? How did you get here step by step and take control of the entire [Pure Land]?” Cao Yuan asked curiously.
An Qingyu smiled faintly, “After I drifted here with Jiang’er, I first simply experimented with the rules of tolerance for forbidden ruins here, not realizing that it attracted the tracking of the oracle’s envoys, but with Jiang’er’s ability, we got out of it easily.
Later, I spent a week learning the language here, then took 200,000 yen to the casinos, and after gambling my way through four casinos in a row, I wiped out a couple of small yakuza who were trying to pick a fight in passing, and ended up winning back 940 million yen, and setting up a couple of logistic companies with the fake identities that Jiang’er had forged for me.
These logistics companies spread all over half of Japan, from modern metropolis, to remote countryside towns, there are my people everywhere, ostensibly engaged in logistics work, but through the invisible cameras attached to their bodies, transportation vehicles, coupled with Jiang Er’s ability, I can spread my eyes all over half of Japan.
It’s a pity that even after I’ve made it this far, I still haven’t found any of you ……
About half a year ago, I realized that this method wouldn’t work, so I turned my goal to this place.”
An Qingyu pushed up his glasses and continued, “According to the intelligence I gathered, the [Pure Land] is more akin to a kind of observer suspended above the earthly realm, and if I’m not wrong, this place hides this country’s deepest hidden secrets, and if I can unearth them, I might be able to find you guys.
Thus, I began a six-month long plot ……”
By the time An Qingyu finished speaking about all of his plots and layouts, Cao Yuan fell into silence.
He looked at An Qingyu slyly, helplessness flooding his eyes, everyone is human, why can the gap be so different ……
Brain is really a good thing, but unfortunately mine is not good.
Cao Yuan sighed.
An Qingyu picked out the last piece of bone dregs and began to carefully sew up his wound for him, but before his threads were finished, Cao Yuan’s wound had already basically healed itself, and from the outside, there was almost no trace of any injury to be seen.
”You also have super speed regeneration?” An Qingyu asked in surprise.
Cao Yuan shook his head, “I don’t know, before, although I recovered faster from my injuries, it doesn’t seem to be as fast as this, I always feel that since that incident two years ago, something has changed in my body ……”
An Qingyu raised her eyebrows, her gaze if anything stared at Cao Yuan’s brain, licked her lips slightly and asked tentatively:
”Why don’t you let me dissect it and then I’ll tell you what happened?”
The corner of Cao Yuan’s mouth twitched, “I’m not in the habit of being a guinea pig.”
”How boring.”
An Qingyu shrugged.
Just then, Cao Yuan looked like he remembered something, “Seven Nights is also here.”
”What?” An Qingyu froze and quickly snapped back to her senses, “Where is he?”
”I don’t know the exact location, but half a month ago, an oracle ambassador took his picture and wanted to come and extract information, at that time, he should have just logged in, and an oracle ambassador went to look for him.” Cao Yuan paused and continued, “But there were no other intruders in the prison area besides me, so he shouldn’t have been caught.”
”He’s Lin Qiye, how could he be caught so easily.” An Qingyu said with a smile.
Cao Yuan gave him a sly look.
An Qingyu also realized that he had said the wrong thing and coughed lightly, automatically skimming over the topic, “Other than him, was there anyone else?”
”Yes. At that time, the oracle messenger showed me a total of five pictures.” Cao Yuan recalled, “The first one was Chubby, the second and third were you and Jiang Er, the fourth …… was someone I hadn’t seen before, and the fifth was Lin Qiye.”
An Qingyu’s eyes narrowed slightly, “If these photos are in chronological order, after you, the one who landed is Fatty, then Jiang’er and I from a year and a half ago, but why is there a stranger? Could there be others like us?”
”Nope.” Cao Yuan shook his head with certainty, “I wasn’t the first to disembark, Fatty was the first, when I was first captured here, they took Fatty’s picture and asked me about it, the correct order should be Fatty, me, you and Jiang’er, the stranger, and Lin Qiye.”
”In other words, Jia Lan and Shen Qingzhu haven’t gone ashore until now?” An Qingyu pondered for a moment and dismissed the idea, “Not necessarily, just because they weren’t captured by the oracle doesn’t mean they haven’t come ……”
”To be honest, I’m a bit curious.” Cao Yuan couldn’t help but open his mouth, “If the first one was Fatty’s words, just by him being a big idiot …… just by his not so smart brain, how did he survive here and perfectly avoid the Oracle’s tracking?”
An Qingyu thought for a long time, and again had no answer.
”Anyway, you should recuperate here first, with your current recovery ability, in a week at most, you’ll be able to move freely.” An Qingyu put away the scalpel and said.
”What about you? Are you going to find Seven Nights and the others?”
”No, I’m staying here.” An Qingyu shook her head, “Since Seven Nights is here, he’ll make a big commotion sooner or later, I just need to wait here quietly for him to show up, there are secrets of this country hidden in the [Pure Land], and I need time to decipher them.
I hope that by the time we rendezvous, I will have fully grasped this country’s intelligence …… But when you recover, I can send you down to them first, as long as you wear a communication headset, Jiang’er will be able to contact you at any time.”
Cao Yuan thought about it and nodded heavily, “Good.”
